I have a 2170 with a f-150 4 stroke yamaha double tandem trailer, and yesI really like my 2170. It handles tough situations when it gets rough, andis able to draft around 11-12 inches no problem.

Flip seats are standard. I went with the leaning post which I strongly recommend.

as far as the jackplate my Dealer said that he felt it was not needed. After I purchasedthe boat I agree. Now I lived in TX/LA perhaps that would be different. I do not encountera lot of area's that I need this.

Not sure if the 130 gallon ice chest would fit. I think my ice chest is a 94 under my leaningpost, maybe a 72. I also have 2 live wells. One is under the seat in the console. I like toput my food in drinks in there.

I got some really good quates , I thinnk I'm gonna go this weekend and sign that lign . I'm gonna have to get the 2 stroke 150 to make it more affordable . My only fear is getting a boat to big . I started out looking at the 1860 , man its grown up !I'm not sure to get a leaning post or the flip flop . Never been in a boat with a leaning post and I know the flip flop would come in handy when anchored fishing out the back .Todd , is that tandem axle trailer a starline , does it have torsion axles ?

Does anyone out there have a tandem torsion axle trailer , how do they do ?

Thanks Ryan

I dont think you can get one that is to big...i have a 22 and if i found the right deal i would move up to a 24...but its all in what your needs are...if you can get a steal of a deal on a bigger boat then do it...becasue then if the family wants to go out or a few more friends wanna go fish then its not to crowded

The boat is a 2006, and it is a starline torsion tandem trailer. Something elseto think about with the cooler seat vs the leaning post. Most people that havehad both prefer the leaning post. My Dealer also pointed out that it would botherI believe he said rubbing the back of your legs under your knee. They may haveredesigned this problem since I purchased my boat. I already knew from my fishingclub (ACFA) that everyone I had spoken to agreed on the leaning post. I hope thishelps. Best of luck.

the leanpost is standard these days, i would get the delux lean post not the regular one. we started putting a taller console in the 2170 a couple years ago unless you are at least 6 feet tall the cooler seat will be to low.

I just got the 2170 to the house . I bought it from Crown Leisure in Biloxi Ms . I haver never been treated better . The whole "buying a big ticket item" went smooth , no stomach aches . Love the delux leaning post . The 2170 has everything I want in a boat . FishabilityRhino
